Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 403 It’s over
  Ying Zheng listened quietly to Zhao Ji's venting howl, and the doubts in his heart were finally solved.

All the crazy actions are for revenge... Ying Zheng understands his mother's thoughts to a certain extent. He suffered humiliation and suffering in Zhao State, and he also had resentment towards his father in his heart, resenting him for escaping alone and leaving him behind. .

But he didn't expect that his father had been dead for so many years, and his mother was still resentful. Even as time went by, this hatred became more and more intense... Maybe it was because she also hated Lu Buwei, and Lu Buwei still hated him. alive.

"Huh..." Chief Ying Zheng exhaled and slowly asked his last question, "What about me? I am your son, your biological son!"

Do you only have hatred in your eyes and resentment in your heart? Don't you even care about your own son?

"..." Zhao Ji was silent for a moment, and then replied, "You are Ying Yiren's son!"

Ying Zheng's head was slightly raised, his eyes were tightly closed, his lips moved several times, and his expression was complicated and unspeakable.

Because I am the son of Ying Yiren, are you angry with me? Or maybe you simply don’t regard me as your parent-child because of this?

"When the Lao Ai case is settled, I will send someone to retrieve the Wang Xi and Hou Xi." His head lowered again, his eyes opened, Ying Zheng's expression returned to normal, calm and cold, after leaving such a sentence, Then left.

Zhao Ji looked at her son's leaving figure quietly through the thin but opaque curtain without saying another word.

She may have feelings for Ying Zheng, after all, they are her own flesh and blood, but unfortunately... this family affection, because of his father, because of his childhood life, is mixed with too many other impurities, but it is far less affectionate for Ying Yiren. The hatred with Lu Buwei is pure.

In people's eyes, only the purest emotions can often be retained, whether it is love or hate.

………………

After Ying Zheng left the dormitory, he returned to normal.

It was not that he simply suppressed his emotions in his heart, but from then on, he completely looked away. There was no more mother-son tenderness between him and Zhao Ji!

Next, mother and son no longer need to meet each other.

For committing such a heinous crime, fornicating the palace, and inciting rebellion, Zhao Ji must pay the price even if she is the Queen Mother.

Of course, she was the biological mother of King Qin, so she could not be given a death penalty no matter what. The most she could do was to be imprisoned in the cold palace for the rest of her life.

But Ying Zheng did not intend to confine her in the cold palace.

Leng Palace... that was also on the border of Xianyang. If he didn't want to see Zhao Ji again, it would be better to stay away and imprison him in the Yongcheng Old Palace. It would be best if he never saw her again.

When Gai Nie and Zhao Gao saw Ying Zheng coming out, they immediately greeted him and felt relieved.

No matter what, the two of them were still a little worried.

Gu Xun is not worried about Ying Zheng being harmed personally, but he is worried about the other party's psychological trauma.

Unlike Gai Nie, they couldn't hear the conversation between Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji, but Gu Xun could hear it, especially the last words of Zhao Ji. Gai Nie and the others could faintly hear it, Gu Xun Xun Geng didn't say a word, everything fell into his ears.

This is terrible!
  Gu Xun felt that if this matter happened to him, it would be so terrible and uncomfortable.

Being fooled by my own father and cheated by my own mother... is simply outrageous!
  But family scandals should not be made public. Gu Xun thought about it. Ying Zheng probably wouldn't want others to know about it, so he couldn't say anything. He could only pretend to know nothing.

Zhao Gao and Gai Nie came forward to greet him, but no one asked any questions.

Even if they don't understand the details, they understand in their hearts that this is the family matter of their king. If someone doesn't take the initiative to talk about it, it's better not to talk too much. If someone who owes something is asked, it won't do any good!

Ying Zheng looked around the three of them and said slowly, "Let's go back to Xianyang."

……………… Xianyang City, South Bank of Weishui River, Nanjie Tianhe Medical Center.

Gu Xun sat on his familiar and comfortable recliner, took a leisurely sip of tea, warmed his throat, and felt more comfortable.

It's better to stay in your own home and be comfortable.

Now he has just returned to Xianyang, so he should be one step ahead of Ying Zheng and others, because he came back alone and did not have to wait for the large army.

However, he didn't come back with his sword, so there was no need to be so anxious. He used Qinggong and wandered around for almost half an hour before he came back.

It was Shenshi when we came back, and the autumn was getting darker day by day, and now the sky was already dark.

The rebels who attacked Xianyang have been defeated by Xiong Qi, and they were killed and captured.

The three of them, Mo Crow, stood on the other side of the counter, quietly waiting for their boss to speak.

"Is Fusu okay?" Gu Xun put down his teacup and asked with a smile.

"The eldest son is fine." Mo Ya clasped his fists and first talked about Fusu's condition, and then explained the situation at that time.

"There was indeed a killer who took advantage of the rebel attack and attempted to assassinate the eldest son. When my subordinates saw this, they intervened to save the man."

"The people here are very powerful? Can the masters in the palace protect Fusu?" Gu Xun asked curiously.

After hearing this, Mo Ya immediately knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and clasped his fists in apology, "That's not the case. The masters in the palace are enough to stop those killers, but my subordinates still took action on their own initiative. Please forgive me, sir."

Bai Feng and Ying Ge also knelt down.

Gu Xun shook his head, knowing Mo Ya's motive for making such an arbitrary decision.

"Forget it, I won't argue with you this time." Gu Xun reached out and raised the three people kneeling opposite him, but he still left a warning, "Don't do it again next time."

"Fusu is still a child. Don't spend so much unnecessary thought on him. I don't like it and I don't need it."

"Yes, sir." Mo Ya and three others responded in unison, feeling relieved.

Although I knew that Gu Xun's generous (?) temperament would most likely not delve into this matter, but I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Making opinions is something that is taboo for most people in high positions. In the past, under Ji Wuye, he did not dare to do anything beyond his control. He always followed orders strictly.

Do less and make fewer mistakes!
  Putting the matter of Fusu aside for the time being, Gu Xun then asked, "Did you take the opportunity to learn something about the previous battle between the two armies?"

"My subordinates have inquired." Mo Ya replied, "Previously, Lao Ai mobilized local garrisons from three places with a total of more than 15,000 people to attack Xianyang, while the brothers Changping Jun and Chang Wenjun led Xianyang's 10,000 imperial garrison troops. Go to meet the enemy."

Fifteen thousand people... Lao Ai used Hou Xi and Wang Xi to mobilize a lot of local troops!

Gu Xun muttered a few words in his heart.

The local army is no different than the frontier army, both in quality and quantity. There are already many local armies that Lao Ai can mobilize 15,000 people.

Of course, if the border army rebels, it will basically start at 30,000, with no upper limit.
